Upgrades and Migration White Papers

Symantec DeployCenter Library: ING North America Insurance Corporation

Overview Through its member companies, ING offers its clients around the globe a comprehensive array of financial products and services. In order to bring some sanity to its desktop imaging processes, ING needed a solution that could reduce the size of its image library. ING found the solution it needed in DeployCenter and the Deploy Toolkit from Symantec. Symantec's DeployCenter dramatically reduces the time and effort required to roll out and upgrade organizations' computer systems. It enables them to simultaneously setup, configure and deploy multiple Windows workstations to a new or upgraded operating system.
